The Color Run is back and is coming to a city near you on its Kaleidoscope Tour! You may remember when my oldest girls and I ran this 5K last year and I can tell you from personal experience that it is a blast! We had so much fun and it’s super family friendly. It’s not called the happiest 5K on the planet for nothing.
The race itself is not intimidating. It’s not timed and there’s no pressure to get your personal best time; the organizers just want to get you moving and have a fabulous time in the process. In fact, more than half of the participants are first-time 5K runners (and more than half just walked in the race we were in)! If you’ve never heard of the Color Run, it’s basically a 3.1 mile course with checkpoints that cover you in colors throughout the race and then a TON of colors at the finish. Again, it really is so much fun.
To join in on the fun, find your local race and use code COLOR5OFF to get $5 off your registration fee! Plus, when you register as a team (4 or more people), you’ll get an extra $5 off which makes it a $10 discount with the coupon code! There is a processing fee, but you’ll be paying $34.94 versus the $44 (after fees) individual sign-up.
My team registration.
To make it even better, the Color Run is offering some great swag that’s even better than last year’s! You’re gonna get a really fun and colorful t-shirt, headband, wristband, and sling bag. Check out the Color Run website for even more information and details about your local race.
If you don’t have a team in the Columbia, SC area, feel free to join under team Southern Savers. The race is March 1st, and we’ll all have a blast together!
In the past year, we’ve discussed organic meats, dairy, produce, sugar, chocolate, coffee, body products, and more. Today, we’re going to take a look at one of the largest parts of the standard American diet…grains.
The USDA recommends that about 30% of your diet should be grains, half of that being whole grains. Whether you agree with that recommendation or not, grains are a pretty big staple in the standard American diet. We’re going to take a look at the top three grains produced and consumed worldwide: corn, rice, and wheat.
[First, a little disclaimer: this is a HUGE topic. We could spend weeks discussing the pros and cons of grains alone, but we won’t. :) I’ll leave that research to you. What we will discuss are the differences between the conventionally and organically grown grains. We’ll dive in this journey by taking a look at wheat today.]
How is Wheat Grown?
Wheat is a great crop. It grows relatively quickly (100-150 days), and it’s infinitely useful. Once the wheat berries have been separated from the plant, they will store indefinitely, maintaining all their nutritional value! A sample of ancient wheat was found in an Egyptian tomb and was brought to the US and cultivated in the 1950’s. Today, you can buy this “ancient” wheat under the brand name Kamut. It’s so different from today’s modern wheat that some people with wheat sensitivities have no reaction to Kamut.
Farmers have grown wheat for centuries, but advances in technology (machines, fertilizers, pesticides, radiation, genetics, etc) have made the wheat business more profitable and changed the crop. (Let’s take a minute to let that sink in: changes in farming practices over time have CHANGED wheat.)
-Size: Wheat used to grow about four feet tall. Today, it grows about two feet tall and has a huge seed head.
-Nutritional Composition: Thanks to its physical changes, modern wheat has a shallower root system and shorter stalks, which causes less mineral absorption and less exposure to the sun = less vitamins and minerals in the wheat.
-Radiation: Wheat is exposed to high levels of gamma radiation to help scramble the wheat’s genetic information to produce new traits. It’s also used to prevent infestation and sprouting in wheat stores. Supposedly, there is no residual radiation on the wheat, but this study (feeding malnourished children irradiated wheat?!?) from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that the kids developed abnormal cells after eating the irradiated wheat. Oddly, despite the genetic changes, irradiated wheat is not considered a GMO (genetically modified organism), because it’s not altering or splicing the wheat’s DNA, just mixing up what’s already in there.
-Pesticides: There are over 16 chemical pesticides typically used on conventionally produced wheat. The most common is malathion (same medication used to get rid of head lice). On its own, malathion is only mildly toxic…unless you ingest it…or it gets chlorinated during water treatment. Then it morphs into the highly toxic malaoxon. Another study on children showed that kids with this pesticide residue in their system were 55-75% more likely to have ADD/ADHD.
-Dependent: Modern wheat can’t grow in the wild without the assistance of fertilizers or pesticides. Industrialized wheat has been domesticated to the point that it’s dependent on the farmer’s intervention to survive.
-GMO (genetically modified organism): Some wheat crops are genetically modified to be more resistant to insects and resistant to weedkillers with the goal of making the crop more profitable. As of now, GMO-wheat is not approved for use in the US, although it is being tested. In fact, last year some GMO-wheat popped up randomly in a field in Oregon. Although it isn’t supposed it be out there, GMO wheat is possibly sneaking into our supply.
How is Organic Wheat Different?
I’m not sure what the weather is like in your part of the country, but here in my neck of the woods we’ve been breaking records with these crazy cold temperatures! It was 13 degrees here the other day and while some of you may be used to these frigid numbers, I found myself wanting to make a quick and cozy dinner and wrap myself in many layers of blankets.
The recipes you’ll find below are perfect for a frugal night in. You’ll wondrously feel a bit warmed up when you hear the bubblings on the stove, smell the bouquet of soothing aromas, and taste the familiar flavors of these comforting dishes.
The prices listed are an average price based on what’s on sale this week so you’ll have something to compare to your shopping list for your local grocery store.

Today we’re taking a look at Origami Owl. This is Jessica’s story who is an independent designer for Origami Owl.
The company started back in 2010 when 14-year-old Bella had a dream of buying a car for her 16th birthday. Her parents told her to start saving her money, so she began selling customizable jewelry to family and friends, and now Origami Owl is sweeping the nation. Origami Owl has thousands of Independent Designers who host jewelry parties, selling jewelry that tells a personal story about the person who buys it. The concept is simple, but the results are gorgeous. You choose the charms that tell your personal story, then choose from an assortment of beautiful lockets, and then select a chain. You can even customize your piece further with fashionable plates and dangles. One of great things about this concept is that you can update it to keep it uniquely you! So when you change, so can your locket. It also comes packaged in a super cute box that looks like Chinese takeout. You also get a fabric fortune cookie box to store it in. It’s great for gift giving!
Bella was recently seen on Good Morning America and in October Inc. Magazine for the Hire Power Award recognizing Origami Owl as #35 on the list of top 100 job creators in the US.
Origami Owl’s mission is to be a force for good; to love, inspire + Motivate people of all ages to reach their dreams + Empower them to make a difference in the lives of others. Origami Owl is a customizable jewelry company that helps you tell your own personal story to show off your personal style with jewelry.
Jessica’s Story:
She graduated from college in May of 2012 when she was 3.5 months pregnant and not hopeful to find a job in that condition. She stayed at home and they “survived” on her husband’s income alone, but she knew that a little more money coming in would definitely help out. A year after graduating, her aunt showed her a locket she had made and Jessica fell in love with it. She immediately went online to sign up to sell Origami Owl. At the time there was a waiting list for new designers, so she waited for 2 months and finally received an invitation to join. Jessica says that it was the best decision of her life. She can stay at home with her son and still contribute financially to their family goals. The good news is that the wait list is over! When you join you can immediately start working your Origami Owl business.
